Ingredients

• 2 medium Zucchini
• 2 medium Red bell peppers
• 1 large Red onion
• 2 cups Cherry tomatoes
• 4 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 8 cups Mixed greens
• 0.5 cups Feta cheese
• 0.25 cups Sunflower seeds
• 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or heat a grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Trim the ends off the zucchinis and slice them into 1/2-inch thick lengthwise strips.

Step 3

Core and quarter the red bell peppers. Peel and cut the red onion into 1/2-inch thick rounds.

Step 4

In a large bowl, combine the zucchini, red bell peppers, red onion, and cherry tomatoes. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons of olive oil, mince the garlic, and add it to the vegetables. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Toss to coat.

Step 5

Place the vegetables on the preheated grill (use a grill basket for the cherry tomatoes to prevent them from falling through). Cook for 3–4 minutes per side for the zucchini and red peppers, and 2–3 minutes per side for the onion and cherry tomatoes, or until lightly charred and tender-crisp.

Step 6

Remove the vegetables from the grill and let them cool for 5–10 minutes. Slice the zucchini and red peppers into bite-sized pieces if desired.

Step 7

In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, remaining tablespoon of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper for the dressing.

Step 8

In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, grilled vegetables, feta cheese, and sunflower seeds. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

Step 9

Serve immediately, garnished with additional feta cheese or sunflower seeds if desired.
